The Normalization procedure will be employed by the National Testing Agency to provide equity in the assessment of JEE Main 2024 outcomes. This guarantees that students will experience comparable levels of difficulty because the exam was administered over several days and sessions. The process of normalization guarantees that no candidate has an unjust benefit or drawback. Students will be ranked by NTA according to their percentile scores, which are derived by a predefined algorithm.
